Trying to download files off certain sites don't work however others do For example i'm trying to download a 500MB file from Filefactory. However no matter how long I leave the file on filefactory ALWAYS gets interrupted by Firefox half way through and says "Download Failed" This is driving me insane. I would love to know a fix. Downloading off other sites such as Mediafire or Mega whatever even if it's over 500MB always works no problems. Could Firefox be interfering with Downloads, FileFactory has a bad connection, or is it something to do on my side? I don't think so because I have good internet speeds and downloads work for other sites

Have you tried a download manager? Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.

Your protection programs could be at fault.
